in my hands

Standing amongst the crowd of line, Lu Tian's eyes stare unmoving at his wife. His expression had return to it usual indifference as no one can read what he is thinking about.

However, until Yue Ling stopped in front of the old man, he finally blink his eyes. Turning away, he strides back to join his family. She did say that she will return his side.

Yue Ling and Ji Jingxu both gesture a polite bow to the old man. Each person held their own smile.

Staring at both his grandchildren, Grandfather Ji stares in awe at them. His granddaughter has grown to be a young woman and his grandson into a young man.

Usually, it was his family who should have been the first to give him their gifts but instead, they chose to wait in line with everyone else.

As he continue to stare at them, he felt a tinge of pain in his heart as his eyes stare into the unknown. He felt proud of the both of them, yet, he felt guilty for leaving them so soon.
